School offered me a deferral option...can I decline?

I received an email today from the law school where I already have made my seat deposit asking me to defer until next year, and they will increase my scholarship. I'm assuming that they have more people deposited than space available. I have several questions. I am below both of my schools 25% and I am a urm, does this mean that since I'm near the bottom numbers wise that the school is trying to push me out?
I have already signed a lease, quit my job and pretty much uprooted my life to attend this school. Also, age is a factor in this too. The scholarship increase is another 10k/yr. I have until monday to let them know my decision. Can I tell the dean of admission that I can't really defer or are they more or less forcing my hand(e.g if i don't defer will the revoke my acceptance? Does anybody have an experience with this sort of thing?
